Thanks. I am planning on that when she is ready to, and I am trying to distance myself from the negative things that she does in a way that doesn't intensify the situation or make me get upset to the point in which I "vent". Like yesterday she said something that would normally upset me, but instead of getting upset I just ignored it in a way as if what was said had no meaning to it, because it is coming from her illness, not from her. Does that make sense?
